Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 developer Saber Interactive has revealed a little bit of what we can expect from the co-op shooter in 2025. Just before the end of 2024, the studio posted something of a roadmap that includes various bits of new content due out in 2025.
]]>2024 has been a year of massive, perhaps irreversible change for the games industry. The games media space, which has employed me for over a decade, has itself fallen on the hardest times I’d ever witnessed.
]]>All of you Warhammer fans that are pumped for 40K after the release of Space Marine 2 will be very happy to hear that Henry Cavill TV show is going ahead at Amazon.
]]>Warhammer fans, it’s time to take stock of the best deal for you this Black Friday. Head over to Amazon and you’ll be able to pick up Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 for PS5 for just $49.99. It's a US only deal for now, but we'll keep an eye out in the UK as well.
]]>If you're a fan of brining your Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 mod loadout with you when you jump into online matches, here's some bad news. Developer Saber Intercative has announced that from December onwards, it'll be banning them from public sessions, due to some technical issues which're even effecting non-modders.
]]>Avatar: The Last Airbender now has a huge action-RPG in the works, and it's coming from Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 developer Saber Interactive.
]]>If you recently had your PS5's homescreen shove a weirdly out-of-date or slightly irrelevant advert in your face when hovering over one of your games, there's good news - you shouldn't run into such a thing anymore. Why? Well, because PlayStation says it's "resolved" a "technical error" that was causing what some had interpreted to potentially be a new advert system.
]]>The first major content patch for Space Marine 2 is here, and it's bringing a bunch of major content additions and small tweaks that should help remedy much of the game's less-liked quirks and absences. These include, but are not limited to, 1v1 duels between friends, and changes to the PvP spawn system to make spawn camping harder.
]]>Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 has been incredibly successful, so much so that its developer is already thinking about a sequel and DLC.
]]>If you've been playing Space Marine 2 as of late, you may find yourself among the many keen to see more Chaos space marine content. Be it customisation options for the PvP multiplayer mode, or even some PvE missions to help flesh out the antagonistic faction, there's a real hunger for some more love for the Warhammer baddies. There may be some good news in the future for you, as Space Marine 2's creative director has offered some hope for Chaos content over Twitter.
]]>Space Marine 2 appears to be the current hotness. It's popped off on Steam, hitting an impressive player count entirely with early adopters before smashing that figure once again as soon as the gates were thrown open by the game's public release. The result is multifaceted. Not only do 40K fans get a loving send-up to the world they've invested much time and money into, but a new group of 40K fledglings have been given a bombastic welcome to the far-flung future British artists and game designers created in the 80's.
]]>Space Marine 2 is out and making a name for itself in the Steam charts, breaking its own concurrent player count following its general release yesterday. However, as a premium game, maybe you're unable to hop on the hype train right now. For those waiting for payday, a discount, or otherwise, Roblox might be able to tide you over.
]]>Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 has been officially released, and proven that its popularity wasn’t a fluke. The game initially became playable over the weekend for those who opted for its gold and ultimate editions, and it managed to attract millions of players, enough for it to reach nearly 135,000 concurrent players on Steam, well ahead of the original Space Marine.
]]>Space Marine 2 appears to be the current hotness, a bombastic showcase of the Warhammer 40K universe with plenty of gore, action, and brotherly love. As of writing, it's still the morning before the game releases for those not willing to spend big on a special edition of the game, and it's already topping the Steam top sellers charts. You don't have to be a psyker to glimpse into the future and see it'll be big.
]]>Good news, Warhammer fans. It looks like the community consensus over Space Marine 2 is on the upturn, as Steam community reviews for the game have tipped over into the Very Positive range the morning of its general release to the public. A good sign for the game as the flood gates open.
]]>If you're excited to jump into some Eternal War PvP in Space Marine 2, you'll be confronted with a choice. Why class do I choose? You'll need to get decent with at least two for regular play, and picking the right one for you is important to start gathering up those wins. To help you out, we've picked out the best Eternal War classes in Space Marine 2 that'll rank the classes and point out each of their strengths and weaknesses.
]]>I need to talk about the Eternal War PvP mode inSpace Marine 2. It has problems. The servers are kind of fizzling in and out of consciousness as of writing, and there's not a huge number of maps or game modes present. But even with all these issues present right now, it's still one of the most refreshing PvP experiences I've played in recent years. Yes, that includes the popular FPS you're thinking of. Plus any extraction shooter, battle royale, or trend-chaser on your mind. They're missing a crucial element.
]]>Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is out. That’s technically true, in that you can play the action game right now. The official release isn’t until September 9, but like many of today’s biggest games, paying more upfront unlocks the game a few days early for you.
]]>The Heavy Bolt Rifle! A massive rifle with plenty of ammo and lots of damage, and excellent at mowing down enemies in droves. It's accuracy isn't great, but that's part of the trade off. In Space Marine 2 it's a great choice for the Vanguard class, and well worth investing time and mastery points into. If you're unsure about how exactly to spend 'em, we've got a guide on the best Heavy Bolt Rifle versions and perks below.
]]>The Bolt Rifle is likely the first main primary weapon you'll use in Space Marine 2, and is a trusty friend to any and all Warhamemr fan. It's also a pretty decent gun to use in Operations, able to chip away at smaller enemies and big elites both. To help you make the most out of this gun, you can find our picks for the best Bolt Rifle versions and perks below.
]]>Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 might be the most faithful Warhammer video game adaptation of all time. You're paying money for a really good product, you just don't get a huge amount in the box. Ask any Custodian or Grey Knights player, though: that's the quintessential Warhammer experience.
]]>There is perhaps no other IP with such an intensity of detail, or worldbuilding, or lore as rich as Warhammer. It's been around for nearly 50 years. 50. Any work done within it must align with an absurd amount of lore written over years within books and magazines. As you can imagine, faithfully recreating Warhammer in other mediums is tricky. A fact that Saber Interactive chief creative officer Tim Willits was eager to speak about at the Space Marine 2 booth at Gamescom.
]]>STOP WHAT YOU'RE DOING. I know, I say that a lot - certainly more than I should to readers who could literally be anywhere in the world and doing anything at the times I end up addressing them. It's justified this time though, I swear.
]]>Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is perhaps not a sequel I ever expected to play. The original Relic Entertainment game was unusual by perhaps every measure. It was a shooter-melee hybrid that came from a studio chiefly known for its strategy games. It wasn’t especially well-received at its release, but has since garnered something of a cult status among Warhammer 40,000 enthusiasts, and really, anyone who played it.
]]>After a full build of the game recently leaked and has ended up offering lots of folks their first taste of the game long before they thought they'd get it, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2's developers have acknowledged what's happened, and urged people not to play the "unfinished" version.
]]>Sorry to those of you looking forward to the public beta test for Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, but it's been cancelled - for an understandable reason.
]]>Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2 is a few months out still, but those of you with a mind for strategy might be happy to hear about a currently free game.
]]>As promised, the Warhammer Skulls event was full of exciting announcements for Warhammer and Warhammer 40,000 fans. None were more impressive than the Space Marine 2 reveals, however.
]]>Turns out that Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2 will include a currently officially unconfirmed PvP mode.
]]>UPDATE (13/09/24, 1:10 PM BST): Embracer Group has now confirmed in a press release that 4A Games and Zen Studios will be sticking with it, with their potential sales to Saber Interactive as part of the $247 million deal announced earlier this year that's seen the latter be sold to Beacon Interactive from the former having been cancelled.
]]>Saber Interactive will soon be free of Embracer Group thanks to a private investor group coughing up $500 million for the outfit. There is also a new report stating the mega company has a buyer lined up for Gearbox Software.
]]>It’s the dumbest plan anyone’s ever come up with, but it’s the only one I’ve got.
]]>Embracer Group has issued another round of layoffs across its studios, and this time, redundancies have hit 3D Realms and Slipgate Ironworks.
]]>Space Marine 2 has anounced its new release date at The Game Awards, following a delay earlier this year. It looks like we'll be able to step into Titus' big metal shoes on September 2024.
]]>New World Interactive, one of the most beloved independent FPS developers to come out of the modding scene, has been hit with a major round of layoffs. The studio's parent company, Embracer Group, is responsible, as it continues to struggle with debt.
]]>It's that time of the month: Xbox has announced the next round of Game Pass games coming to the subscription service throughout December.
]]>Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, which many were hoping would drop right into the nice and cosy February-April period of next year, will be a little sad after today's news. The co-op action shooter is not only nowhere near release, its launch target is a little puzzling.
]]>Sony has removed all tweets pertaining to Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Remake from its X account.
]]>It’s a sad day for those who have been enjoying Evil Dead: The Game over the past two years, as plans for the game’s future have been halted.
]]>Hot off its recent, impressive Gamescom showing, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 has delivered an even deeper look at its gameplay in the form of a new, nine-minute gameplay showcase. The new footage once again stars Lieutenant Titus and his Ultramarine squad, fighting against the Tyranid swarm.
]]>Sometimes, you just need a game that’s big and dumb and fun. After a slow Gamescom that feels very lacking in the triple-A space, I can’t tell you how much of a relief it was to venture over to Focus Entertainment’s booth and rip and tear my way through the grimdark future. Some of the most lush visuals of the show, paired with unapologetically bloody and over-the-top action, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 reminds my why I love games – especially bombastic, indulgent, obnoxious ones.
]]>Focus Entertainment and Saber Interactive showed off some Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 footage of the third-person action game during the Summer Game Fest 2023 live show.
]]>Evil Dead: The Game has just received a brand new mode, Splatter Royale, and it's pretty much what you'd assume it is.
]]>Another Thursday has been and gone, which means it’s time to see what the next free games are that are coming to the Epic Games Store. As of right now, Epic users are able to grab Shadow Tactics: Blade of the Shogun, and Alba.
]]>Though the news had leaked well ahead of time, the reveal of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Remake remains one of the biggest surprises in that one State of Play from last September.
]]>Evil Dead: The Game has been around for a short while now, and has seemingly been a real treat for fans of the iconic horror franchise from Sam Raimi.
]]>The reveal of Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 in last December's Game Awards was easily one of the show's biggest surprises. A sequel to the cult classic third-person shooter is in development at Saber Interactive, a studio with an abundance of knowledge in the genre.
]]>It's been a good week for Embracer Group and Saber Interactive: after the publisher/developer combo announced that Evil Dead: The Game sold 500,000 units in under a week, it's become clear that there's an appetite for all things multiplayer horror – a trend helped into popularity by the runaway success of games like Dead by Daylight.
]]>Evil Dead: The Game may have had something of a quiet launch as far as marketing and buzz go, but the game has already been a success; per a new tweet about the owner of the game IP, Embracer Group, the game has sold through 500,000 units in just five days.
]]>Evil Dead: The Game is a 1v4 asymmetrical horror that takes inspirationg from Sam Raimi's series of Evil Dead films. Packed to the brim with groovy gore and classic Evil Dead humour, the title has shaped up to be one of the better multiplayer games of recent years. Although, it still has a lot to work on, as we spoke about in our Evil Dead: The Game review.
]]>Evil Dead: The Game is here in all of its groovy glory, and fans of Sam Raimi have, so far, seemingly found great pleasure in seeing their favourite characters come to life once more. This time around, you get to take the reigns and play as each of them!
]]>Evil Dead: The Game is an affectionate love letter to Sam Raimi’s horror franchise and its mass of loyal fans. I’ll hold my hands up and immediately say that I feel indifferent towards the Evil Dead movies. While I’m a horror devotee through and through, my love lies with the crass nature of Rob Zombie movies when it comes to those delicious horror/camp crossovers. That being said, I have a huge appreciation for the work of Sam Raimi, and was still incredibly interested to see just how the direction of his movies would be applied to an asymmetrical horror game.
]]>Wu Tang Clan rapper and legendary lyricist, Method Man, is a pretty hardcore fan of The Evil Dead. The musician has always been a fan of Sam Raimi, often making reference to Raimi's work in his songs.
]]>The Evil Dead, as a franchise, is quite used to being resurrected every few years. This time around, Sam Raimi's legendary comedy horror is having its legacy expanded with Evil Dead: The Game, developed by Saber Interactive.
]]>Evil Dead: The Game is yet another addition to the various games that have been expanding upon the legacy of Sam Raimi's 1981 comedy horror film, The Evil Dead, and its follow-ups.
]]>Evil Dead: The Game has been delayed, again.
]]>The Game Awards 2021 ceremony was full of surprise reveals, but a sequel to Space Marine has to rank amongst the top. Publisher Focus Home Interactive, and developer Saber Interactive revealed Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2.
